Rapper Kid Cudi recently joined forces with McDonald's to mark his McDonald's App 'In the Booth,' which was a virtual performance that took place last weekend. The duo then delivers a special collection of Camp McDonald's merchandise to commemorate the occasion.
The performance was a grand finale of the Camp McDonald's campaign and it featured a plethora of food deals, new menu hacks, limited-edition merchandise, as well as music performances. The main item in the capsule is the pink graphic tee that is detailed with Kid Cudi along with Ronald McDonald and friends. This is followed by another notable tee that is detailed with playful visuals of Grimace dressed up in an astronaut suit preparing to head out to space. It's rounded out by hoodies, caps, socks, and sweaters.
